Hi list,

just curious, what's the rationale to have /usr/bin/pd pointing to /etc/alternatives/pd , which is a symlink to /usr/bin/puredata on Debian?

thanks! Peter

It's a leftover from the idea that pd-extended would be packaged as well. (And both would provide a "pd" binary)

Makes total sense.

Are you experiencing any issues because of that?

No, was just puzzled by the fact that there is /usr/bin/pd and /usr/bin/puredata

All fine now-thanks! P
